About us

This Blog will guide you through the use of Microsoft Disk Operating System (MS-DOS), sometimes called PC-DOS or simply called DOS and Linux OS Commands, functions in very deep details.

 It describes how you can use the important commands contained in all versions of MS-DOS, LINUX
including versions 1.00 through 5.00, to get the most out of your microcomputer. Table 1-3, which is presented later in this section, lists all DOS commands and lists the version of DOS in which the subject command was introduced. Therefore, you can quickly identify which commands are available on your computer and unavailable to earlier versions of DOS. 
This blog is designed to familiarize you with the most commonly used DOS commands by providing plain English descriptions and experience through hands-on activity activities. Once learned, from this blog is available as a handy command reference.

The PATH command is usually entered as a line in an AUTOEXEC.BAT (or batch) file, which most often contains one or more DOS commands. The AUTOEXEC.BAT file is automatically executed upon system turn-on to run one or more desired programs without the need for user intervention. Other batch  files are executed upon command. When an AUTOEXEC.CAT file is used, each command contained in the file executes as it is encountered. The creation and use of batch files is described in Section 8. To illustrate the PATH command, assume you have a program named GATOR.COM that is located in a sub directory. You are not sure if it is cn disk C or disk A, so you want to search both disks and execute the command when found. To complicate matters, you are not sure if the program is in the SWAMP sub directory or the MUD sub directory. Here is where the PATH command comes to your rescue. To set up a search...
